Unless I'm an AI, I'm pretty sure "uv run" is the same number of characters as "python". So it's shorter. Also venvs are a translation layer already, changing path.

it's not really the number of characters so much as the cognitive load of having to do something different here vs there and anything I run successfully on the command line can't be directly lifted over into scripts etc. Along with training a team of people to do that.
